Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Simply put on the jacket and adjust the hood and cuffs for your comfort. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before venturing into wet conditions to maintain waterproofing.
Compatibility
This jacket is designed for adult women and is ideal for winter sports like skiing, snowboarding, or general cold-weather outdoor activities. It pairs well with thermal base layers and mid-layers for optimal warmth, depending on the temperature.
Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the jacket's waterproofing and insulation properties:
- Preparation: Before washing, close all zippers and fasten any cuffs or flaps. Turn the jacket inside out.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a technical wash designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics, or a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and harsh detergents as they can compromise the waterproof coating.
- Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat. For waterproof jackets, a low heat tumble dry can help reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid compressing it tightly for long periods to preserve the padding's loft.
